Haste Spell

“Put some hustle in even your heaviest units!
Haste Spells lack the damage boost of Rage Spells, but provide an even better boost to movement speed. A lower storage space also allows you to take more of them into battle!”

The Haste Spell is a Dark Elixir Spell added in the July 1 update.

Like a Rage Spell, it boosts the speed of troops in its area of effect; the Haste Spell, however, does not make them deal extra damage.

The Haste Spell has a slightly smaller radius than a Rage Spell.

Haste Spells may be used to counteract the effect of Air Sweepers.

The Haste spell is most effective in aiding slower but more powerful troops, such as Balloons, Dragons and P.E.K.K.As.

Before the July 2015 Update, Balloons were combined with Rage Spells to increase their speed. When the Haste Spell was introduced, Lavaloonion, LaLoon, Balloonion and other variations saw new light due to the larger speed increase and consuming half the housing space of a Rage Spell.

The Rage Spell’s name in game files is “haste.”

At its initial level, the Haste Spell has the same movement speed increase as a level 5 Rage Spell.

For every 1 level the Haste Spell gains, the amount of speed it gains is always increased by 6.

Haste Spells do not stack, but if a Haste Spell were to be placed along with a Rage Spell, their speed increase would stack.

Haste Spell’s brewing time has been reduced thrice, from 15 minutes to 3 minutes.

The first reduction in duration occurred during the March 2016 update, where its duration was reduced from 15 minutes to 10 minutes, along with all other Dark spells.

A balance update on 4th May 2016 halved its brewing time to 5 minutes.

The October 2016 update further reduced its brewing time to 3 minutes.
